• Meet Our Iconic Animal Ambassadors – Kick off the day by meeting some of our most beloved residents, including Bridled nailtail wallabies, Estuarine crocodiles, and dynamic dingoes. Your children will learn fascinating facts about these incredible creatures and their unique habitats.
• Explore the Nocturnal World – Step into the shadows of our nocturnal house for a behind-the-scenes tour, where they’ll encounter the mysterious creatures of the night and discover how they thrive in the dark.
• Caring for Koalas – Get up close with our koala ambassadors and learn about the special care they need, including their love for Eucalyptus leaves, and what our Queensland's Wildlife Rangers are doing to help their survival in the wild.
• Create an Enrichment Challenge – Finally, your Junior Rangers will put their creativity to the test by designing, building, and presenting an enrichment challenge to keep our animals happy and healthy.
